    Hi All,

    From what I've seen rasp berry PI's are quite difficult to come across in Ireland does anyone know where there's a good deal going on without all the extra crap like keyboard and mice etc?

    P.S I'm from Dublin but I can afford it to be shipped.

    Ordered last week from farnell got some bull**** email today saying my credit card was declined, 8 days later? Sounds like a bull**** excuse, Just ordered from newit like robin suggested. Postage was 6 pounds and they allow you to pay by paypal so no reason for bull**** excuses. Hopefully it arrives next week =D.
